Message-id: <20091201174813.GA9698@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Date: Tue, 01 Dec 2009 09:48:13 -0800 From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> To: sct@...hat.com, akpm@...ux-foundation.com, adilger@....com Cc: linux-ext@...r.kernel.org Subject: ext3-related deadlock: suggestions for problem isolation? [Note: resending to proper ext4 list] Hello! I have been encountering the deadlock situation shown below during rcutorture/CPU-hotplug testing. It is quite rare, being triggered less than once per hundred hours of intensive testing. Once the deadlock occurs, CPU-hotplug operations are stalled, but RCU grace periods proceed normally. It is of course quite possible that this deadlock is due to my recent changes, but I thought I should check with you guys before committing unnatural debugging acts with the ext3 code. Any suggestions for things to look at when this error occurs, or debugging patches to help isolate the problem? Needless to say, any debugging patches will need to be -very- selective in their output, given how rare the problem is. ;-) Thanx, Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------ INFO: task kjournald:1104 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
